Quad Blogging~!

  Hi! This is my first time blogging with other students from a different country, so I’m very excited. I think that quad blog is a very good idea since we could get to know more people.

  Today (5 December) is father's day in Thailand, many people were celebrating for the king's 84 birthday. In our school student would write a poem to the king and there's also others kind of performance (e.g. Thailand's traditional dance). 

  On the king's birthday people light the candles at night and put it around their house. Just like we put the candles on our cake, but on father's day we put it on the wall instead. This year the king reached his 84 years so we must light 85 candles around our house. Today Bangkok is full of decorating light, there was also a marching going on today to celebrate king’s birthday. This is the end of today’s blog post and I looking forward to write another new post. 

Thai Innovation

   As we've heard, Thailand is facing a very serious natural disaster. Many people were also very afraid and stress about this flood situation. However because of this event many people had created a very interesting invention. I think that flood alarm is the most creative invention. During the flood many people were worry that the water will get into their house at night. People were very worry. Many people stay awake all night to look after their house and make sure the it doesn't come in. It would be helpful to does people to have the flood alarm, so when the water reached the level it will make a sound then people could hear it and they wouldn't have to be worry about the water entering their house at night.

Flooding in Thailand

    The flooding in thailand had effect over 50% of Bangkok’s space. The flood had slightly effect us. In soi 164 there was a little trouble with flood but they've got the situation in control. My family decided that it would be safer if we move to other city, so we went to Nakorn Ratchasima. Usually it takes us only 2 hours to get there, but because of the flood it takes us 5 hour to get to the destination.

    This event could effect Thailand’s future because many of industrial estate had been flooded and got close. Many of the investor might change their industrial estate to others country.  However if Thailand's government got the situations in control, then they might still continue their work in Thailand.

Identity

Identity is all of those characteristic which a person is known to be. People all have different identity and nobody could live without identity. Identity effect many people’s life and it also related to how people feel and how they express their feeling.

In middle school, identity is very important. Many people are not sure of who they wanted to be because sometime when other people or their friend have something new you wanted to change your self. In middle school to feel comfortable socially and academically. In the first quarter of school years we learn many things about identity and how it effect your identity. Making a movie about who you are is one of the project we did about identity. I have learn that my name also reflected on who I am.  Sometime in middle school people wanted to be like others, but it just impossible because it's hard to change your identity, so we have to be proud of you we are.

Metacognition

Metacognition is the awareness of their own thinking, it the ability to evaluate one's thinking. There are three type of metacognition:
1. Metacognitive knowledge
2. Metacognitive awareness
3. Metacognitive control
Metacognitive knowledge is a personal learning characteristic (knowledge of nature learning), metacognitive awareness mean being aware of what you're thinking and metacognitive control mean making a productive decision.


Metacognition could also help us as student when we learn. We could think deeply, flexible in using our own knowledge and also when we solve problem, for example: In Math class we have to think deeply about how are we going to solve the problem so that is one way of using metacognition.
